I love the candy that Myoopi "produces" in the last panel of most strips he appears in. A nice touch.

I'd heard about Katawa Shoujo before, but has anything been done on it since late 2007? Maybe I was looking at the wrong development forum.

The development seems to be continuing and Act 1 (preview) was released few months back.

I think I have seen this anime! Except I think it was called "Pugyuru".

"Where's her torso?"

This is coming from a character with blobs for hands and feet.

It reminds me of an episode of Dr. Who where they covered a similar idea.

You mean the episode with the absorbing alien, where the couple consists of a man and a woman's face in a piece of pavement and their sex life is her giving him blowjobs? Yes, I'm being entirely serious.

I thought he was referring to the one with the little creatures made out of fat...

I never saw that one, but I know which creatures you mean. Yeah, you're probably right.

I only thought it was that woman-in-the-pavement because she doesn't have a torso; literally. No arms, no legs, no torso, no neck, not even a head for crying out loud. Just a face.

Uhhhh... in a way I get it... but then in a BIG way I don't. Is the conspicuous lack of body a reference to something?

Yes, and if you had been reading the thread like you are supposed to you would know that the reference is "Moe blobs". Don't understand? Google it.

Don't be so nasty- the term 'moe blob' really doesn't get thrown around here that often (heck, I only had a vague recollection of it when it came up in this thread- and honestly couldn't tell you excactly what it means.)

Not everyone can follows every tiny piece of the fandom, it's OK to miss things.

UWAAAHHH!!! But at least she has a body.

In chapter 4 or 5 of volume 1, spoiler[Fran "resurrects" a murdered and disemboweled girl by stuffing all her vital organs into her cranium. Not enough space? By removing the majority of her cerebrum, reducing her intelligence to a baby. Then Fran attached her hand to her neck to enable the girl to "walk."] This week's comic strip reminds me that chapter.

Now get your mop that comes with Ultimate Mop Daisuke DX Limited Edition to clean up the mess. Twisted Evil

On a non-anime note, Is anyone else reminded of the 1960's Sci-fi cult classic, The Brain that wouldn't die, title character aka Jan in the Pan?

You mean The Head That Wouldn't Die? Laughing


well if we go by the credits at the end of the movie, yes.

Good grief. Definitely sounds like someone's twisted dream while enjoying tea and cake.

Oh and to icepick314, oh memories. I remember that one.

Yeah, cept the guy had clearly gone the 'f insane.

Or, at least that's how I'd like to deal with that episode.
